Moving Tokens off from Matic
If you’d like to move your $GCR tokens from Matic to Ethereum Mainnet, go to https://wallet.matic.network/ and connect your Matic wallet.
Withdrawing funds from Matic back to the Ethereum Mainnet is also a simple 3-step process but with a caveat. For the funds to be available back on Ethereum it will take ~34 minutes. This is to ensure there is no fraud happening whilst withdrawing.
To withdraw funds, click on the ‘Withdraw’ button and you will see a popup opening.
- Add the amount that you want to withdraw and click on the “Withdraw to Ethereum Network” button. Once you click on the button you will receive a confirmation from MetaMask to approve the transaction. This will be the first of 2 transactions that will need to be completed.
- Once the transaction is approved, you will see a popup on your screen like this:
- The first transaction is to initiate your withdrawal.
- The second transaction happens after the checkpoint is submitted and acknowledged; you will need to confirm the transaction again. This could take up to ~34 minutes to complete.
The last transaction will be ‘Complete Withdraw’. Once the checkpoint is completed, you will need to confirm the last transaction
Once you have confirmed all these transactions, you will receive your funds back on Ethereum.
